So, I'm pretty interested in this, but I haven't seen much of Naruto yet. I've watched up to episode 39 of Shippuden, and have played the first 2 chapters of Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm 3, which starts right before the five kage summit. That means I'm missing a big chunk of the story inbetween. Should I actually watch all the episodes, or would a simple summary mixed with what you've explained suffice? Also, what's your opinion on ninja from villages other than Konohagakure? I wanna have a Suragakure nin.

EDIT: Well, all the non-filler episodes, I mean.
